Short Biography

Dr. Alberto Ferreira De Souza is a Professor of Computer Science and Coordinator of the Laboratório de Computação de Alto Desempenho (LCAD – High Performance Computing Laboratory) at the Universidade Federal do Espírito Santo (UFES), Brazil. He received B. Eng. (Cum Laude) in electronics engineering and M. Sc. in systems engineering and computer science from Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro (COPPE/UFRJ), Brazil, in 1988 and 1993, respectively; and Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D) in computer science from the University College London, United Kingdom in 1999. He has authored/co-authored one USA patent and over 60 publications. He has edited proceedings of four conferences (two IEEE sponsored conferences), is a Standing Member of the Steering Committee of the International Conference in Computer Architecture and High Performance Computing (SBAC-PAD), and Coordinator of the Technical Committee on Computer Architecture and High Performance Computing of the Brazilian Computer Society (SBC).

Dr. De Souza held the following positions in UFES and elsewhere: Computer Engineering Course Coordinator – UFES (1994-1996), member of the Board of Directors of the Regional Council of Engineering of Espírito Santo (CREA-ES) – CREA-ES (1995-1996), Head of the Computer Science Department – UFES (2000), Vice-Dean of the School of Engineering – UFES (2001-2004), Director Superintendent of the Institute of Technology – UFES (2003-2004), and Pro-Provost of Planning and Development – UFES (2004-2007). At the present time, Alberto is Vice-President of the Administrative Council of the Espírito Santo Science and Technology Foundation (FEST) – FEST, and president of Steering Committee of the Vitória High Speed Metropolitan Area Network (METROVIX) – METROVIX.

Alberto Ferreira De Souza is Comendador of the order of Rubem Braga.
